10 Actors Who Experienced A Jaw-Dropping Transformation To Fit Their Role
It is incredibly hard to become an actor. I believe anyone can act, but to become a working actor is another matter. Many people mistakenly believe that acting is simply talking while sometimes getting emotional; in other words, they believe that what they see on TV or on stage is simply someone being themselves. Because of this, a lot of individuals think they can do it. They say, “Acting is only hard because you have to memorize lines. If I could remember, I could be an actor, too.”
Actually, here’s the thing: Remarkable actors do go through intense training specifically so you can’t tell how hard they’re working, so you can’t see the years and years of training that make them fit for the role. That's right! Actors often go to extreme lengths in order to get into characters. From weight loss and gain to remarkable make-up and prosthetics, here are photos of your favorite Hollywood stars transforming themselves in the name of cinema. Scroll down for more details!

It wasn't easy for Maïwenn, as she had to learn to sing, wear a rather heavy alien head, and not sit for hours so as not to ruin her outfit and makeup, as it took her about three hours a day. No one saw her or heard her voice during rehearsals, only when the scene and theater curtains were drawn could the actors see her and be completely amazed by her performance.If you are hunger for other hilarious stories, go to our page aubtu.biz to explore.
